Chapter 450 Unkind

Chapter 450 Unkind
On a moonlit night in autumn, Xiao Langzhong rode alone and arrived at the Xihua Gate in the inner city!
Mei Cheng'an, the captain of the garrison, acted as the guide and talked to him. Afterwards, he did not need to take any action on his own and sent someone to inform the commander-in-chief.

"Hehehe"

"The moonlight is still beautiful!"

"Eh?!"

"Mr. Mei, your last name is Mei."

"I remember that there is a famous family named Mei in Nanzhili, and their family has been a scholarly family for generations."

"I don't know if you are"

Xiao borrowed the moonlight and spoke casually, in a rambling way, which actually seemed like he was trying to get someone's background.

"Uh, yes!"

"I am a humble servant, uh"

Upon hearing this, Mei Cheng'an was unwilling to talk more, but after all, his superior had not arrived yet, and he was confined in front of the visitor, so he had to pretend to talk and respond vaguely.

Seeing this, Xiao Jingchuan was very insightful and realized that the person was trying to evade suspicion.

In fact, hadn't he been fed up with the tricks used by officials in the past? !
But in the current situation, he felt uneasy about entering the palace to meet the emperor, as he already had a lot of lawsuits on his mind!
I couldn't care less about so many things. When I got the chance, I had to bite the bullet and ask more questions!
"Hehehe"

"Hey! Look at me, do I look like someone who is difficult to get along with? Huh?!"

"Or are you afraid of getting involved if I commit a crime?!"

While still teasing himself, Xiao Lang went a step further and raised his hand to slap Mei Cheng'an on the shoulder.

By getting to know each other better, the relationship will become closer!

"Ha ha ha ha."

"Look how awkward it is for you!"

"Why do you always have such a stern face?!"

"Relax! Just relax a little! Huh?!" He justified his actions.

"Uh, yes!"

Upon hearing this, Mei Chengan shuddered with fear and his whole body became extremely tense.

This was the first time he met General Xiao Jingchuan from Shandong. He felt that he could not figure out the other party's behavior, so he did not dare to talk to him casually!
"right!"

"Just now I saw the guard going north. You have a classroom not far from the north, right?!" Xiao said again and left.

"Well, the Imperial Guards are under the jurisdiction of the Beijing Guards Command!"

"Your commander is Liu Hou, Liu Wenbing, am I right?!"

"Haha, I will go with him"

As for Xiao Jingchuan, before he went south this time, Qi Gang had already informed him about the situation in the Southern Court!

As for the two foreign relatives, Liu Wenbing and Gong Yonggu, they had been recalled by the emperor since the beginning of July. Xiao Jingchuan knew this clearly!

Therefore, it is reasonable that at this moment, when he first entered Nanjing, he could already tell the details of the imperial city’s garrison!

The reason why he had to force the issue and bring up Liu Wenbing first was probably because it would make it so that Mei Chengan, who was so stubborn, would be completely helpless!

But that’s just the case!
General Mei Qian, the garrison commander of Xihua Gate, however, still clenched his teeth and did not give General Xiao Lang any chance to take advantage of!
"kindness"

"Supervision"

"Hey, Commander!"

"If it's the guard, he has already galloped over to report it!"

"Humble, humble servant, how about we take advantage of this moment to do a check before entering the palace?!"

"Wait for our superior to arrive soon, so as not to waste any more time on the commander-in-chief!"

Mei Cheng'an changed from being passive to active, and seemed to be afraid of Xiao Lang's behavior. He hurriedly changed the subject and looked for something else to talk about!
Lest I continue chatting like this and say something that I shouldn’t, I really can’t stand it!

However, this move is somewhat embarrassing for General Xiao!
Perhaps at this moment, the man was so panicked that he had no time to think about all these things. Who knows!

After hearing this, Xiao Jingchuan was also stunned!

"Uh, test, what do you need to test?!" He said in confusion.

"what!"

"Unload, unload and inspect the weapons!" "It's just some routine rules and regulations!" General Mei Qian was also flustered and embarrassed.

But now that I have said this, there is no way to take it back.

So, Mei Cheng'an looked away, and Tong Kan turned away with a stiff upper lip.

Raise your arm and gesture!
Look, two soldiers and guards came forward from behind, both clasping their fists and bowing.

After the momentum was resolved, the three of them took action and began to grope around Xiao Jingchuan from front, back, and both sides!
"General Xiao!"

"I'm sorry!" Mei muttered nearby.

Afterwards, the three of them started to investigate carefully. For such a situation, it was difficult for Wen Xiaolang to be mentally prepared at the moment!
"Uh, this..." Immediately, he was stunned.

However, after all, he had followed Duke Cheng Zhu Chunchen into the palace before in the northern capital, and he had also experienced this kind of inspection at the palace gate, so it was not a strange thing.

Xiao Lai simply let go of his anger and laughed it off.

"Hehehe!"

"Mei Cheng'an, you, you are quite interesting!"

"Okay! It's really good!"

"He does things in an orderly and meticulous manner!"

"so!"

"When Lord Liu comes over, I will have to go in front of him and say a few good words for you!" Xiao sighed helplessly, shook his head and smiled bitterly in response.

When the emperor is approaching, and you want to be invincible in the officialdom and affairs, you must know how to take the situation into consideration at all times!

And he is already standing in the scene, so he needs to be more considerate!

Don't underestimate the night guard at the palace gate; he's just a small captain now!
In terms of position, since they are located at the foot of the imperial city, they are of the lowest rank and cannot be compared with those cabinet officials who pass by here during the daily court meetings!
Although his rank was low, he had real power! And he was in such an important position!
This itself is not simple!
When you don't need him, everything will be fine!
But what if one day you are eager to pass the customs and get stuck there!

That.
Haha, now you understand why it means that the King of Hell is aggressive and the little ghosts are difficult to deal with!
Therefore, at this moment, even though Xiao Jingchuan was contradicted by Mei Chengan several times, he still tried to comfort her with kind words, which was exactly what he meant!
Hearing this and hearing Xiao Lai's kind words, the stern General Mei Qian finally put on a amiable expression.

She raised her eyes and glanced at Xiao Lang.

"This"

"Uh"

"Well, thank you very much for your training, Governor!"

It was hard for Mei Chengan. He managed to force a faint smile, but it was so subtle and hard to detect that it would disappear in a moment!

Only by clasping your hands in greeting can you give back some face!
After that, there was no further communication between the two parties. Xiao Jingchuan also admitted his bad mood. He raised his arms and let the three of them go up and search together!

It didn't take long for the three of them to skillfully take away the sword and pistol that Xiao Lang had on his waist!
It is the short blade in the general's boots, which must be taken out with precision and not let go!

Just as they were waiting in front of Xihua Gate, the three of them worked together to investigate Xiao Lang's situation!

Suddenly!

There was a crisp sound of galloping horses coming from the north!

Da da!

Ta-da, ta-da-da!

Three or five fast horses with horseshoes were galloping towards the pass!

"Hahahaha"

"Mr. Xiao!"

"Xiao Lang!"

"Hahahaha!"

"You're finally here!"

"Tell me to wait!"
